I am majoring in Natural Sciences at Xavier University. They provide a mass load of science help and much more, such as, Supplemental Instructions and tutoring. Supplemental Instructions are sessions in which upperclassman teach and review material from the lecture. They provide these sessions for Biology and Chemistry, three times a week. It has been calculated; those who attend the sessions on regular basis earn higher grades on tests. They also have free tutoring for just about any subject and all the professors have office hours in which you may attend for more individual help. If you want to learn, want the help, and want to succeed in life, Xavier University may be the perfect route to start.
Do you enjoy the experience at your school?
Enjoying is not the word I want to use. If I could think of a better word I would use it. Xavier University is a great school to enjoy your college life and to receive a degree at. The professors are great and very nice to all the students. They are always willing to help you and can work around your schedule if you cannot attend their office hours. The people here are awesome and it makes it even more remarkable to be around people who are pressing their way to success. Party's! We have them. Its all apart of the college life; however, the students here make sure they put their studies before the parties which I enjoy a lot.
Do you feel you’re getting value for the money you’re spending on college?
Although Xavier is a great school, it is also an expensive school. It may be said that if you have low income and financial aid then you may not be able to attend this school. I am the first generation to attend school in my family. I come from a single parent home and have a 17 year old baby sister who will be expecting soon. I always had a dream to become a doctor and attend college with no doubt in my mind that it would be impossible. My first semester of college was a struggle for my mother and myself with the tuition; however, we made it through. Xavier University may be expensive but it is worth the struggle in the long run. I pray everyday that God helps my mother and myself have the money to pay for my schooling at Xavier University. With God and my mother on my side, I will make this tuition pay work. Because one has low income or little financial aid coming in, do not have any doubt that you cannot attend here because with hard work it is possible.

Xavier University is great for just about anyone, but to be more particular, it is great for those who may need extra help and tutoring, those who need help trying to manage their time wisely, those who want to succeed in life, and those who want to have an unforgotten and remarkable college life, both academic and social.
